Kurteeba Muzaffar | Dr. Mohd Ilyas "A New Power Factor Correction Technique using PFC Boost Converter" Published in International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development (ijtsrd), ISSN: 2456-6470, Volume-5 | Issue-5, August 2021, pp.352-358, URL: https://www.ijtsrd.com/papers/ijtsrd43814.pdf

The utilization of power is based on the power quality and ideally our power quality should be 1.0 for better efficiency and the qualitative power should be send from the sending end to the receiving end. By qualitative power it means that the transmission of the power has negligible losses. In electrical system the harmonics are present due to the nonlinear loads which includes rectifiers, variable speed drives etc. that use switching mode power supply (SMPS).They are typically found in the blade servers. By power factor correction, in this paper, would be able to exterminate the harmonics up to a greater extend or the problem of low power factor can greatly improve. The power converter i.e., here the boost converter with power factor correction draws a sinusoidal AC current which is in phase with the voltage i.e., AC input voltage. The main objective of the paper is how the power factor is corrected up to greater extend by using of the boost converter and get the desired results of the AC current which will be in phase with the voltage and by using the technique like tunning PI controller. By tuning the PI controller in the PFC boost simulation circuit, PI controller shows minimum crossover distortion of the input current . It also shows low distortion of harmonics and very low tracking error when compared to the PI controllers which are conventional in nature. Furthermore, in this paper by using the PI controller technique, keeping the voltage and load variable during the simulation and will check the results of the graph that if there is any variation in the output voltage. Large amounts of currents are to be drawn if the power factor of the system is poor so, power factor correction helps us to achieve the good power. There are many converters that are used in the PFC but mainly Boost converter is used because it is simple and it gives excellent performance of Power factor.
